This Wednesday, July 14, is the Cold Start Happy Hour. We're meeting at the Bulldog NE at 7pm. Grab a beer and talk with other founders and entrepreneurs about what you're working on. For more info: http://coldstart.tumblr.com/

I bet I could get us into CoCo (The coworking spot in St Paul) if we wanted it.

Either way, count me in. Ill watch this thread, and drop you a line

Just a quick update, about 10 people have already emailed me, so if you're interested let me know, so that if I have to find us a conference room somewhere I'll have time to do it.

A conference room sounds awkward, why not a bar?
[+] aaronbrethorst|15 years ago|reply
Yes please! I'm in town visiting from Seattle until the end of the month. A bar is preferable to a cafe or conference room, imho.

Im interested. I travel to msp every week Monday - Thursday so I could do a mid-week meet-up
[+] dottertrotter|15 years ago|reply
Currently I'm checking with people to see if sometime later next week would work for people?

Right now I'm thinking we meet at a starbucks or a caribou, unless we get a lot of people and then I'll find a conference room somewhere.

Send me an email and I'll add you to the list I'm compiling.

Edit: I live in White Bear Lake; work in Shoreview.

I always thought I was the only HN reader in WBL. But now you are, since I've moved to Boulder.

I'd be interested. Maybe start a small Google Group to organize it...?
[+] brianstuckey|15 years ago|reply
I'm interested - depending on the date, I can probably make it.

I'm in Omaha, but may be willing to pop up for this.

Of course, I just moved away from the Twin Cities.
[+] SlyShy|15 years ago|reply
I'm interested. I'll keep my eye on the thread.
[+] dottertrotter|15 years ago|reply
I've already got a couple of emails, so if you want to send me yours I'll send out a message out to the list here in a few hours to start discussing when and where.
[+] epochwolf|15 years ago|reply
Very interested but alas, I'm 6 hours away. :(

Sounds cool. Anyone else in the Eagan area?
[+] dottertrotter|15 years ago|reply
I think that at least one other person I've gotten an email from is in the Eagan area, and I work in the South Saint Paul area. Hope that helps.
